Ok the ladder and the ground will make a right triangle/right angle. This is because the ground is flat, the wall is straight and only the ladder is leaning/slanted. I hope this helps.
Answer:
[Vertex form]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given function:

We need to find the vertex form which is.,

where
represents the co-ordinates of vertex.
We apply completing square method to do so.
We have

First of all we make sure that the leading co-efficient is =1.
In order to make the leading co-efficient is =1, we multiply each term with -3.


Isolating
and
terms on one side.
Subtracting both sides by 15.


In order to make the right side a perfect square trinomial, we will take half of the co-efficient of
term, square it and add it both sides side.
square of half of the co-efficient of
term = 
Adding 36 to both sides.


Since
is a perfect square of
, so, we can write as:

Subtracting 21 to both sides:


Dividing both sides by -3.

[Vertex form]
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
6x^2 + 7x^3 + 8x^5 +9
Write in order from highest power to lowest power
8x^5 + 7x^3 + 6x^2 +9
The highest power ( largest exponent) is 5
The degree of the polynomial is 5
The answer is D.
|-4| < 4
4 < 4
|-1| < 0
1 < 0
|-6| = -6
6 = -6
|-14| > 10
14 > 10
